This Norwegian cheese is made under the Ski Queen brand from a mixture of cow and goat's milk. It has a unique, sweet flavor due to the way in which it is processed. The milk is cooked until the sugars in it have caramelized, giving the cheese its distinctive brown color and sweet flavor. The milk is then curded and pressed. This distinctive Norwegian "brown cheese" (brunost) became popular as a skiers' snack and thus the label "Ski Queen". It is widely popular among Scandinavian-Americans, and children especially are drawn to its sweet flavor.

I love this cheese! I had it when I visited Scandinavia and loved its sweet taste. This is just as good!

Cheese made my daughter smile

My daughter brought Gjetost cheese back from Norway with her but her luggage was lost and she was most upset about losing her cheese so we were happy to see igourmet had it. We got it on time and it is delicious the only problem was the cost of shipping (WOW) otherwise it's Great!!!!! I wish there was a store around me

Heaven on earth!

The Norwegians have this cheese for breakfast served in thin slices on toast. To my way of thinking this wonderful cheese is good anytime, not necessarily in too thin of slices. My favorite way to enjoy it is with a good cup of coffee or a cafe au lait in the evening.

Gjetost brown cheese

The Gjetost always arrives cold and in good condition. It lasts quite a long time in the refrigerator. It is delicious.

unique cheese

this is a real find. It's like eating caramel and melts in your mouth. It is the only cheese I've ever had that needs nothing with it

Tastes just like I remember, eating Norwegian cheeses with my Dad when I was young.
